In the world of pen-and-paper RPGs, the big daddy of them all, Dungeons and Dragons, has moved on to fourth edition. However, the popularity of the previous edition – 3.5 – remains strong, and this faithful player base is precisely what GSG is banking on with War of the Burning Sky.
We’ve been waiting to play this in MMO form… |
This game is especially exciting because it is being released in conjunction with EN World Publishing – true legends of the pen-and-paper RPG space. The game is a free to play MMO, which is all the rage now.
The game seems to have a good sense of morality – promising the decisions you make have a very real impact on the world around you. And it should be a world that you care about – featuring a wide range of NPCs and a full season system across the many varied landscapes.
Free-to-play MMOs are now dime a dozen, but the partnership with ENWorld has us very excited, and War of the Burning Sky was a very popular pen and paper RPG. That, in itself, means this game is worth looking into.
